Our International Relocation Services

We offer a complete suite of services to manage every detail of your move from the UAE.

Sea Freight Shipping – Cost-Effective & Secure

For larger shipments, sea freight is the most economical option. We offer both Full Container Load (FCL) for an entire home and Less than Container Load (LCL) for smaller moves. It’s the standard for transporting furniture, vehicles, and the bulk of your household goods.

Air Freight Shipping – Fast & Efficient

When speed is your priority, air freight is the perfect solution. It’s ideal for transporting essential items, valuable documents, or a smaller shipment you need to arrive quickly at your destination.

Professional Export Packing & Crating

International packing is a science. Our team uses specialized, durable materials to wrap, pack, and crate your items. Fragile goods receive custom-built crates, and all boxes are meticulously labeled to create a detailed inventory for customs. This is the cornerstone of our professional packing services.

Customs Brokerage & Clearance

We handle it all. Our specialists prepare and submit all necessary documentation, manage duties and taxes, and liaise with customs officials on your behalf to ensure a smooth clearance process.

International Moving Insurance

For complete peace of mind, we offer comprehensive, all-risk marine insurance policies. This protects your belongings against unforeseen events during transit, from door to door.

✍️ A Mover’s Insight: The One Thing People Forget When Moving Abroad

I’ve managed hundreds of international moves. The packing, the shipping—that’s our job. The one thing that consistently trips people up is the declaration. A client moving to Canada once casually mentioned a collection of antique daggers he was shipping. To him, they were just decor. To customs, they could be classified as weapons. We had to stop, get them professionally appraised, and file special paperwork. It saved his entire shipment from being seized. My advice is always this: be radically transparent with your moving consultant. That “souvenir,” that “old electronic,” that “gift from a relative”—tell us everything. It’s our job as Dubai’s premier movers to know the rules so you don’t have to learn them the hard way.
